Yesterday I happened to see the latest creation of Kamalhasan - Dasavatharam. It is not fashionable to criticise such movies as it's a totally new approach to story telling and it's a crime to misunderstand a person like KAMAL. But I can't help sharing the pain I experienced when I saw the movie.

There was no need to bring up the 12th Century rift between 'shivaites' and 'vaishnavaites' to narrate a stupid crime story in the guise of Chaos theory. Kamal will not dare to denigrate other faiths by weaving his cheap stories around their mythology / history.

When the statue was thrown into the sea, it was very painful to see. The veracity of the incident shown is not known. It was most indecent on the part of Kamal to show such a blatant insult knowing very well that it'll hurt those who worship Narayana.

Similarly the 45 minute footage denigrating the idol of Lord Govindaraj in the name of preventing the Vial from damage also could have been avoided. The idol is thrown around like a toy. It is deliberate and such a narration is not required to carry on the story.

Here is a great actor who falls for cheap publicity by denigrating his own religion. He has run out of ideas and perhaps driven mad and hence offers such perversions as creativity. May Lord Govindaraj bless him with some sense.
